How Did the Ex-Warden Travel.

CHICAGO, July 25.-Msrines are not in
clined to the theory that ex-Warden
McGarrigle, made his escape on the lake
Saturday night. A search through the
harbor yesterday showed that all Of the
tugs that are regularly Employed in tow
ing vessels were either lying In the river
or had gone out after tOws since break
fast time. Only one craft was missing,
and that was fast little steam yacht,
which was launched about two weeks
ago. 1t is thought that she left the har-
Dor some time Saturday. She arrived
In Racine yesterday. II MCGsrrigle did
take the water route to Canada, a couple
of lusty fellows could easily have rowed
him out In the lake until he was in the
pathway Of vessels leaving the harbor,
and almost any steamer would have
stopped to pick him up. The fact that
kilograms had been sent to all ports to
search vessels arriving from Chicago
counts for little, as the masters of the
class Of vessels that he would meet with
would put him ashore at any desired
spot for consideration.

Geo. Altgelt Files an Important Suit
AgainstIthe City and the Water
Company.
A suit was filed In the district court
today by Geo. Altgelt, esq, lawyer Of
this city, against the city of San Antonio
and the Water company, to an
null the contract Of % years, now exist
ing between the city and water COM
pany, to furnish the city with water,
and TO restrain the city authorities from
paying the water company any more
money on said contract until the cause
is tried in court. In his petition plain
tiff alleges the suit Is brought for the re-
lief OF himself and all other taxpayers
OF the city who may wish to Join him,
and he gives the contract and the sup
Elemental contract between the two
corporations. This contract, he claims,
is illegal and onerous, and void because
Ii attempts to exempt the water COM
pany from payment Of taxation upon
their property. He states that the city
has paid and now pays $4,000 year to
this company for water, and that taxes
exempted OF the company now amount
to over $250,000.
The suit is brought as a test case, and
1t Is understood Is based upon the de-
cree OF the supreme court In the
case Of City OF Waco versus the Waco
Water-wOrks company in favor of Waco.
Money and legal talent will be expended
upon both sides, and a strong fight will
be made. The parties to the suit have
been cited to appear before the Septem.

the heroes or heroines of your acquaintance
if any such there have been-one with a
yellowish cast of countenance and that Jaun-
diced aspect generally, which the most I'M
practised eye recognizes as the product of a
disordered liver, who did not complain, and
peevishly too, of the soreness of the recall
citrant organ, of pains beneath the right
stipation and headacheb OF course you never
did. and of course the individual was NOT
using Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, or he
would not so have looked-so have complain
with bile, and conduct the secretion into its
proper channel, to re-establish regularity of
the bowels, Danish bilious headache and re-
move impediments to complete digestion,
nothing can approach in efficacy this peerless
Alternative and tonic. Malarial complaints,
always involving the liver and kidney and
bladder inactivity, are remedied by il. II is a

what was done was legal or just. Any
way, the affair was stopped. All that lie

lives, being submerged almost to their
necks at one time. A big bridge which
spanned the stream at this point In
front OF the foundry abutment was COM
pletely wiped out, and 60-fOot bridge,

SAN ANToNIo's INTERSTATE DRILL
A Movement on Foot to Organize 1t and
and Make It a Success.

a Movement on Foot to Organize 1t and
and Make it a Success.
There is a quiet and sure movement
in San antonio to have an Interstate
drill here in the spring, and it has the
support of many prominent gentlhmen
interested in military matters, and OF
the local military companies. The rail
road companies have been sounded, and
are willing to contribute literally to the
funds. The ways and means are figured
out, and meeting will shOrtly be held
In the city with view to organizing
and taking organized action.
There ia no question that such q
movement properly ordered would be
Of great advantage to the city, and would
draw great number of visitors, who
would see the city, understand Its ad,
vsntages, and probably locate here, and
Ii would advertise San Antonio as an
enterprising city. Lsmpasas, Houston
and Galveston have done well by such
enterprises, and the people have made
money and gained In other ways. And
there is no question that Sen Antonio
can do equally well. All 1t wants to
make 1t a success Ia the investment of u
little money, and the united action of our
people.
Two places are mentioned as being
suitable for the drill-the San Pedro
springs and the Riverside park. There
are, however, other places on the en-
VirOns OF the city that could be well
adapted for 1t.
The LIGHT is in favor of the interstate
drill, or any other enterprise that will do
the citizens good, and II urges the PEG
pie to support the movement for their
common good.
In conversation with Traffic Manager
YOakum this morning, that gentleman
informed LIGHT reporter that the San
